Chapter 307: Chapter 306 Who Are You Exactly (6)
The two of them were slightly taken aback and looked in the direction of the voice. Yuan Shen’s handsome face was full of mockery, with his beautiful almond-shaped eyes raised. Although he was smiling, his gaze was utterly cold.
Cheng Ziyang didn’t know Yuan Shen, but he was aware of him since he was the boyfriend of Dong Xin Yan’s best friend Qin Qian.
But, they had no grievances or grudges. Why did he want to drive and hit him? The stance he took just now could not possibly have been accidental. And now, he did not hide his hostility at all.
Cheng Ziyang slightly moved Dong Xin Yan away, then shifted his body to shield her behind him, raised his eyes, and looked at Yuan Shen, saying in a deep voice, "Is there something you want?"
Yuan Shen raised his eyebrows slightly, a bit surprised.
He initially thought Cheng Ziyang was the kind of timid and useless bookish scholar, but to his surprise, he had some courage. At least after just going through a life-or-death moment, he could calm down so quickly and speak so calmly.
No wonder Dong Xin Yan was so devoted to him, treating Yi with such cold indifference and ruthlessness.
Thinking of Gu Ningyi, Yuan Shen’s face turned gloomy again. He squinted his dark eyes deeply and cast a cold glance at Cheng Ziyang, then slowly moved his gaze to Dong Xin Yan’s still-frightened little face, paused, and said, "I’m not looking for you; I’m looking for her."
Cheng Ziyang frowned tightly and without thinking, said, "Why are you looking for Xinxin...?"
Before finishing the word, Yuan Shen rudely interrupted him, "None of your damn business?"
Cheng Ziyang’s gaze darkened a little, pursing his lips, and he didn’t speak for a moment.
Yuan Shen ignored him, instead, he fixed his gaze on Dong Xin Yan and continued, "Dong Xin Yan, let’s talk. Get in the car."
Dong Xin Yan hadn’t completely recovered from the previous scene, her whole being dazed, her jet-black eyes slowly turned and suddenly met Yuan Shen’s eyes full of hostility. Instinctively, she shrank back and grabbed Cheng Ziyang’s shirt.
The three-month deal had ended, and Ziyang was safe and sound. She no longer wanted to be entangled with Gu Ningyi or anything related to him.
Because... involving that deal, involving Gu Ningyi, she didn’t want Cheng Ziyang to know.
Cheng Ziyang sensed Dong Xin Yan’s fear, turned his face slightly to look at her, then gently held her hand, which was ice-cold. He furrowed his brows, and with his warm palm, he firmly clasped her small hand.
Yuan Shen was completely impatient with their public display of affection, his voice grew colder, "Dong Xin Yan, if you don’t want to get in the car, then let’s talk right here. I have no problem with your beloved fiancé hearing what we discuss."
Cheng Ziyang already felt something was odd. After Yuan Shen said this, his mind was even more puzzled. What exactly was going on between Xinxin and Yuan Shen?
Cheng Ziyang looked at Dong Xin Yan, then at Yuan Shen, and said, "Whatever you have to say, say it here."
"Dong Xin Yan, are you sure?" Yuan Shen’s tone carried mockery.
Hearing Yuan Shen’s words felt like a bucket of cold water was poured over her, chilling her to the core, instantly pulling all her awareness back.
Even if she didn’t know why Yuan Shen was looking for her or what he wanted to discuss, given his way of speaking, it was certainly related to Gu Ningyi. How could she let him say those things in front of Ziyang?
So, just as Yuan Shen was about to speak again with a cold smile, she suddenly said, "Fine, I’ll go with you."
